Digestive system
| Target | Sympathetic (adrenergic) | Parasympathetic (muscarinic) |
| salivary glands: secretions | β: stimulates viscous, amylase secretions α1: stimulates potassium secretions | M3: stimulates watery secretions |

| parietal cells | --- | M1: Gastric acid secretion |
| liver | α1, β2: glycogenolysis, gluconeogenesis | --- |
| adipose cells | β1,[2] β3: stimulates lipolysis | --- |
| GI tract (smooth muscle) motility | α1, α2,[10] β2: decreases | M3, (M1):[1] increases |
| sphincters of GI tract | α1,[2] α2,[1] β2: contracts | M3:[2] relaxes |
| glands of GI tract | no effect[1] | M3: secretes |
Endocrine system
| Target | Sympathetic (adrenergic) | Parasympathetic (muscarinic) |
| pancreas (islets) | α2: decreases insulin secretion from beta cells, increases glucagon secretion from alpha cells | M3:[11][12] increases secretion of both insulin and glucagon.[11][12] |
| adrenal medulla | N (nicotinic ACh receptor): secretes epinephrine and norepinephrine | --- |
Urinary system
| Target | Sympathetic (adrenergic) | Parasympathetic (muscarinic) |
| Detrusor urinae muscle of bladder wall | β2,[2] β3:[13] relaxes | M3:[2] contracts |
| internal urethral sphincter | α1:[2] contracts | M3:[2] relaxes |
Reproductive system
| Target | Sympathetic (adrenergic) | Parasympathetic (muscarinic) |
| uterus | α1: contracts (pregnant[1]) β2: relaxes (non-pregnant[1]) | --- |
| genitalia | α1: contracts (ejaculation) | M3: erection |
Integumentary system
| Target | Sympathetic (muscarinic and adrenergic) | Parasympathetic |
| sweat gland secretions | α1: stimulates (minor contribution) | M:[2] stimulates (major contribution) |
| arrector pili | α1: stimulates | --- |
gollark: Why not alts?
gollark: You said "into conways game of life", not "into CGoL lounge".
gollark: Well, just program one of the turing machines as a heavdrone?
gollark: I feel like you need to join APIONET.
gollark: PotatOS has already infiltrated server management.
